Truely and Amazing Story!!

If you could sum up A Pair of Nylons in three words, what would they be?

A superbly, successfully, well-thought-out, story!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Mike Axford as he stumbles into situations thinking he is sly, kind of like the rest of us.

Have you listened to any of the narrator’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, and they have all been spot on, great performances!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I thought it was funny when Mike bought a pair of ladies nylons and said "oh any size will do."
